Vintage assemblage by gailmarie Items used - vintage: Bunte Chocolates tin, Sun-Frost Therm-O-Ware plastic glasses, Ovenex loaf pan, aluminum measuring cups, doll arms, wooden sewing thread spools, wooden block, Scrabble letters; jewels, assorted washers, nuts and bolts
Close up. Here you can see the white rim around the glass (leg). Both glasses have the white rims, which looks good with the white of the tin.
Close up of the tin, as well as the hair-do.
Every time I see a new vintage tin, I tell myself No, you dont need it, you have enough... However, in this case, I fell in love with the colors and the artwork on the tin, so I just had to buy it. I also added jewels on the pc for additional color and pizazz!
This photo shows the artwork on the side of the tin, that I think is really cool, too. I didnt want to add too much to the side, so people could see the design and the wording.
